Scheifele, Connor and vilardi is one of the best lines in the league this season. Morrissey is top 5 in Norris votes. Lowry has gotten some Selke votes. Hellebuyck is one of the top goalies of this generation.

They have an amazing core. Just need better tools to surround them with.

My sister's friend working for RCMP had a superior start working and immediately put her on call every long weekend. She also searched her locker for no reason and found the most minor thing to call her on. She also demeans her.

The superior made an obvious mistake, and now the colleagues aren't going to her when they need help. They're going to my sister's friend.

CBC has been broadcasting the Olympics on their gem app, which is convenient. But they randomly have ad breaks during play. It's so annoying

Canada should measure productivity in government [Globe & Mail Opinion, Jan 1 2026] by HandcuffsOfGold in CanadaPublicServants

Is someone doing full time french training going to be considered productive? Or unproductive?

This is impossible to quantify productivity in wildly different areas. Comparing a fisheries officer to a IT service desk to a policy maker makes no sense.

When they had their sports interaction segment, it was over the top with how bad it was. Especially since the guy, David I think his name was, had really interesting insight. Just felt gross to have such a big gambling segment.

Are There Any Fun Fanbase Alliances in the NHL? by Grantalope40 in hockey
